Simple room with a comfy bed. Shower leaked onto bathroom floor, door lock difficult to open and close. Good soundproofing. Limited street parking only. Trolly stop across the street.

Our room was great, very spacious. We ended up with an accessible room, which meant more space but an unusual layout, but the space was fantastic. The pool was a little small but it was nice to be able to swim outside in February. We did find the area to be noisy, lots of activity outside all through the night. Also, there didn't seem to be recycling options. Be aware that this is a timeshare property and that you'll be given the 'opportunity' to attend a sales presentation, wish we had just declined the offers and enjoyed the week. The hotel staff was very polite, and we found everyone to be helpful, particularly the door staff and valet parking folks.

The room was quiet (3rd floor, soundproof windows) even though it was located at the corner above the restaurant. The bathroom was modern and the radio set a nice ambiance. Furnishings were otherwise minimal (side table and chair) and the hallway from the door to the room was very dark. Overall, a good place to stay due to its quiet nature (caveat that this was not during Mardi Gras) and proximity to the casino and French Quarter.
